What You Receive: One healthy plant in a nursery pot.
Watermelon Peperomia is instantly recognisable by its rounded, fleshy leaves with silver and green stripes, held on deep red stems. It stays compact, making it ideal for desks, shelves and open terrariums. Its semi-succulent leaves store water, so it prefers to dry slightly between waterings and does better in ventilated setups than in sealed jars.
Light
Medium to bright indirect light keeps the stripes sharp.
Watering
Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil is dry. Overwatering causes stem rot.
Humidity
Normal room humidity is fine; avoid sealed, wet containers.
Substrate
Light, fast-draining mix with perlite or bark.
Propagation
Root a leaf with its stalk in moist mix, or cut a leaf in half and lay the cut edge in soil.
